READ THIS LEAFLET CAREFULLY AND IN ITS ENTIRETY
BEFORE USING THE MEDICINE. This leaflet contains
concise information about the medicine. If you

1.
WHAT IS THE MEDICINE INTENDED FOR?
For treatment of high blood pressure.
Amlodipine blocks calcium channels in the blood
vessels and as a result, causes them to relax.
Angiotensin II is a substance produced by the
body that causes blood vessels to constrict, thus
increasing the blood pressure. Valsartan blocks
the effect of angiotensin II. As a result of both
mechanisms, the blood vessels relax and blood
pressure is lowered.
DUPLEX is used to treat high blood pressure in
patients with high blood pressure that did not
decrease following the use of amlodipine or
valsartan alone.
If high blood pressure persists for a long time,
damage to the blood vessels of the brain, heart,
and kidneys, which may result in a stroke, heart
failure, or kidney failure can occur. Lowering the
blood pressure to normal levels reduces the risk
of developing these problems.
If you have any questions about how DUPLEX
works or why this medicine has been prescribed
for you, refer to your doctor.
